SOLOMON DANELIUS, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.

SPOOL-HOLDER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 351,427, dated October 26, 1886.

Application filed August ll, 1886. Serial No. 210.628. (No model.) l

siding at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Thread-Holders, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing. My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in spool-holders; and it consists in a standard having a vertical extension with an end opening and aspool of thread surrounding said standard, the object of my invention being to hold a spool of thread loosely on a vertical spindle, and provide for the even running of the thread in a straight line, and also to cut the thread at the point desired. I attain these objects by means of the peculiar construction and arrangement of the various parts of my device, which will be more fully pointed out and described in the specification and claim.

Similar letters refer to like parts throughout the drawing.

Reference being had to the drawing accompanying this application, the figure shown is a plan view in elevation of my invention.

Referring to the drawing, A represents a baseblock, formed of any desirable shape, preferably round, and of any suitablematerial, prefably of metal. Projecting upward from the center of base A is a standard, B, having a shoulder, a, and a smaller extension, b, above said shoulder, and circular in form, its outer.

quired for use, when it is drawn at right angles to the opening c, and against one edge of the same, where it is cut oif and the inner end retained in the notch for further use, dispensing with the use of shears and the troublesome and injurious method of biting off the thread with the teeth of the operator.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1s A combined spool-holder and thread-cutter, consisting of a metal base having a shouldered central projecting standard, with vertical V-shaped side-cutting lips at its outer end, adapted to pass through and loosely hold a threaded and centrally-perforated spool, substantially as shown.

In testimony whereofl affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

I SOLOMON DANELIUS. Vitnesses:

JOHN GIBSON, JOHN H. GEII..
